[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 560 bytes --]

Given the following code:

(setq font-lock-todo-face (make-face 'font-lock-todo-face))
(set-face-foreground 'font-lock-todo-face "Red")
(set-face-background 'font-lock-todo-face "Yellow")

(font-lock-add-keywords 'jde-mode
                        '(("\\(TODO:.*$\\)" 1 font-lock-todo-face 
prepend)))

Can anyone tell me why the following is correctly fontified (in jde-mode):

    /*
     *
     *  TODO: REMOVE DEBUG STATEMENTS 
     * 
     */

And this isn't?

    /** 01-17-08  jbr
     *
     *  TODO: REMOVE DEBUG STATEMENTS 
     * 
     */

TIA,
Jeff

I am surprised that the first one works. Should it really do that?

Perhaps you can use hi-lock-mode?

It does.  Can you clue me into why is 'shouldn't' work?  The interesting 
thing is that in lisp-mode and c-mode, it seems to always work fine ... 
???

That's quite alright, you have any idea why one works and the other 
doesn't?  After playing around a bit, the two '*' in a row seem to cause 
it to fail?

Fontification is quite tricky, especially the comments. It looks like a 
bug too me. If you are using a recent Emacs then you should perhaps file 
a bug report?

Not a problem, as long as someone can verify my syntax is OK.  Here's the 
snippet again:

(setq font-lock-todo-face (make-face 'font-lock-todo-face))
(set-face-foreground 'font-lock-todo-face "Red")
(set-face-background 'font-lock-todo-face "Yellow")

(font-lock-add-keywords 'jde-mode
                        '(("\\<\\(TODO:.*$\\)" 1 font-lock-todo-face 
prepend)))
